It would probably go like this: "Hey girls, can I get your numbers? I’m a huge fan of Alonso too, I totally adore him." 😍 Did you guys see how that jerk Lewis absolutely robbed him at the Miami Grand Prix? 😲

😉 😁😁

Well, I’d give him my number. 🥳Specifically Fernando's, since she clearly loves him so much. 😍
Everyone acts tough when they aren't seeing the full picture. 😉 😍

As soon as we meet up 😁 😉 🤣 though I honestly think an absolute pushover like Alonso would rather have a guy walking arm-in-arm with him anyway 😉

It’s pretty funny how Alonso keeps whining about "manipulation" and claiming they were just following the rules 😲

Yet, just last week, during those official photo shoots and media days, they were out there testing a brand new exhaust system with cameras positioned all around the car—testing their latest steering wheel update right in the middle of a season where mid-season testing is strictly banned... 😲
it’s honestly pathetic 👎

And honestly, those total losers are just crying about the names because they can't handle the truth... 🤣😂😂😂

Word on the street is the investigation is about those nine drivers being way too aggressive when they were chasing down the medical car after leaving the pits. I honestly don't know the rulebook inside out—what are the actual speed limits once you're out of the box? Anyway, there’s already rumors flying around that they might get slapped with grid penalties at Silverstone...

I'm guessing it's targeting Ferrari 😁

stormyviper11 said:Alonso's got a point, but damn, stuff happens. Lewis gained an unfair edge by breaking the rules—though I honestly don't think it was intentional—and Ferrari basically threw away third and fourth place, maybe even better... Regardless, I don't see anything being changed after the fact regarding Lewis, so let the guys at Ferrari just vent all they want; they've definitely earned the right...

Major props to Kamui Kobayashi, that tactic was brilliant (honestly, if Ferrari had shown some backbone, they might not have called in Alonso and Massa, which could've kept them in third and fourth—maybe even bumped them up to second and third if Lewis gets penalized), plus those two moves at the end were insane. Yeah, the tire gap was massive, but most drivers wouldn't have had the guts to pull that off... With this, Kobayashi proved what he hinted at last year; he’s starting to look like a legitimate future champion.

There's still no official word on what this investigation is actually targeting, I assume...

Oh yeah, penalty or no penalty, 🙏 🙏 🙏 and the legendary Rubens Barrichello!

Since I have no desire to dwell on the whining, the cheating, or whatever else, I will simply agree with everything my esteemed colleague stormyviper11 wrote in this post. 👍

Maria Nelson2 said:Man, I wouldn't be surprised if Fernando finishes third, especially since about 90% of the drivers currently under investigation actually finished ahead of him.🤣 🤣

And he's out here whining about it... I mean, you get the kind of driver you deserve, and you get the kind of fans that follow them. When it's his own failure, it's always someone else's fault.👎 🙂

They don't call it Ferrari International Assistance for nothing...😁

Look, they’re acting like they have some kind of absolute authority, but let’s be real: the FIA is a joke. There’s zero logic or consistency. They should’ve penalized Lewis Hamilton, but they also need to stop blocking everyone else from actually overtaking. The reality is pretty simple—the stewards completely trashed the race.☕

Hamilton had some serious turbo luck on this one. It was like the pit crew told everyone else, "Yeah, you guys? Just stay in the pits." 😳 And these guys? Let them just floor it and see how fast they can actually go.
Hamilton: 10 laps left.
Sebastian Vettel: 5 laps left.
Jenson Button, Robert Kubica, Rubens Barrichello, and the rest—just three laps left.

That's just reality. 😉

Kamui Kobayashi is the moral winner of this race. 🙏

Honestly, the Safety Car should have just let everyone pass until Sebastian Vettel caught up. He sliced through the field like he was gaining three or four spots out of nowhere.
Everyone else just slammed on the brakes and headed for the pits. Looks like there was a literal standstill on the track.😉And the rest of them were probably just sprinting around the track like maniacs, trying to get it over with as fast as possible.
Lewis Hamilton got absolutely hammered. He ended up stuck behind Sebastian Vettel—who really should've played it smarter since he completely missed his window when the Safety Car came out—plus he was already running a bit behind. To top it all off, they had to change his nose, and then he pulled a total amateur move and missed his pit stop during that same lap, just like Vettel did.

Kamui Kobayashi was the only one who absolutely nailed it. Everyone else? Just my grandpa, who somehow managed to completely screw everything up afterward—the pit stops, the strategy... god knows what else.😕

They absolutely screwed everything up, completely and utterly. Honestly, I can't even blame Alonso for complaining; he’s totally justified there. As for the FIA punishing Lewis Hamilton? That was just straight-up dirty. 🙂 No penalties, but they totally killed the race. If there wasn't that penalty, Lewis Hamilton would've been hunting down Sebastian Vettel until the very last lap—it would've actually been exciting. And honestly, even without all the Safety Car mess, we’d be in the same spot because Hamilton wouldn't have had to pit that early anyway. So what was the point? We ended up with a total fraud who walked away with everything while the actual race got completely screwed. 🤦

Don't get me wrong—as a fan, I’m stoked that Sebastian Vettel took the win and that Alonso missed out. But this whole thing is a complete joke. It’s an absolute disaster from the FIA. Their lack of speed and inconsistency is pathetic, and McLaren is clearly exploiting it. They know they won't face any real consequences because if the FIA actually tried to punish them, they'd have to kick them out due to that suspended penalty. And let's be real: doing that would just tank Formula 1 as a whole.

The only thing that's 100% certain is they saw an opening. They would’ve pulled that move with any other team, and any driver would’ve capitalized on it—including Ferrari and Alonso.

The only thing I’m actually looking forward to after this absolute mess from McLaren is a rule change. They need to bring in black flags for anyone tailgating the medical car starting next race. Seriously. ☕

Look, I’m just throwing stones again, and honestly, it’s always easier to judge from the sidelines, isn't it?
I don't think he was trying to overtake the Scuderia on purpose. It felt more like some genius in the McLaren box saw the future and perfectly interpreted the FIA rules—rules that even the FIA itself struggles to make sense of—and gave him the nod because they knew exactly how things were going to play out. He got lucky this time, but luck is a fickle thing; it runs out eventually, both on the track and in life, I suppose.😁

My point was really about how a driver under investigation due to a weird string of circumstances 😁 is currently sitting ahead of Ferrari, which means any potential penalty handed out could end up shoving Alonso further up the field...

Yeah, honestly, I wouldn't even bother diving into the history of decisions favoring Scuderia, or trying to judge the "artistry" of someone who only focuses on getting their opponent penalized instead of actually making a move to pass (if you want a lesson on how that's supposed to work, go look up "Pedro Rodriguez, 1970 BOAC 1000km")... At the end of the day, the fact remains that Ferrari got screwed in this race, and I don't get why that's such a hard pill for people to swallow...

Those currently under investigation will likely drop down the order following qualifying in England. Sorry Teflonso, you're sitting in ninth 😍

Rebecca Fox4 said:Hamilton's situation didn't have any direct impact on Alonso's race at all.....but what can you really say about a man who worries more about whether his neighbor's cow is going to drop dead than how he actually plans to drive his own machine...

I really don't know why you refuse to grasp this—I mean, seriously, 🤷 the point is that Hamilton didn't violate any rules; if he had, he would have dropped to 9th place, which means he’d be just one position ahead of Alonso rather than staying in 2nd. That matters immensely—and I don't just mean for this specific race, but in the broader context of everything (though, I suppose, depending on how wide one's mental horizon is, perhaps the gravity of the situation isn't quite as clear), and that is the entire championship standings at the end of the season..

Henry Morris3 said:Go ahead and troll along with your single-post accounts...

In my entire post (which was admittedly quite insulting, assuming you possess enough wit to actually recognize insults), you've picked out a single problematic snippet—specifically, the part where I suggested that an absolutely unbearable dose of stupidity and lack of decency, stemming from that absolute mess you have going on in your head, is what provoked me (even though I've been lurking on this forum for quite some time) to finally register and share my thoughts with my very first post. So, how else could I have possibly started other than from square one, Albert Einstein?
Since you haven't bothered to address any other part of my argument, I'll just assume that you either agree with me, or perhaps your intellectual capacity simply prevents you from mounting a satisfactory rebuttal..
It seems to me that your comparison of fans to drivers doesn't hold water, because honestly, I'm not sure the world could handle another person like you.. by the way, I'm not even an Alonso fan; this is merely an attempt at an objective assessment of a specific incident.. cheers ☕

So what now? Look, I’m telling you, it isn't Alonso's fault. It's not even the drivers' fault. The FIA is responsible for this entire situation, and there's really no debate about that.☕

So, you're telling me Lewis Hamilton had no clue what he was doing? Give me a break. That's just ridiculous.🤣

He accidentally hit the Safety Car on track and then drove like a total maniac toward the pits. Like, you seriously think he didn't know what he was doing?😂

What’s the logic behind overtaking the Safety Car? Honestly, that excuse—"I didn't realize it was the Safety Car, I thought it was just Nicole driving my Mercedes so I sped up to give her a push"—is absolute gold. 😬🤣

I accidentally and inexplicably typed a Z right before Alonso's name, and when I saw what I did, I just lost it. Laughing my head off. 🤣

But honestly, the nickname is gold 🙏 fits him perfectly 😬🤣

Alonso😍
